Yang Xuan stopped and looked at everyone.

"Wake up the soldiers."

Zheng Wu knelt down for the third time without hesitation.

"Yang Mingfu Gaoyi, I would like to thank you on behalf of the soldiers and people of Zhangyu County."

Yang Xuan and Cao Ying returned to the back house to change clothes.

"Lang Jun, this rescue depends on the situation, we can't force it!"

"We should just let it go." The old thief felt that Du Hui and the others deserved to die.

Cao Ying nodded, agreeing with this view, "Looking for an excuse, such as finding traces of Wasie's army, who can say anything if we don't send troops? Even if Lin'an knows that there is no Wasie army, what can we do? One or two thousand people attack more than 10,000 people

, how to fight?”

He changed the subject and said, "Lang Jun and Du Hui are at odds. Now he is leading his army to ask for help. This is a duty without hesitation. From now on, Du Hui will bow his head when he sees Lang Jun.

Don’t forget, Du Hui’s clamor for promotion is not small. After Lang Jun sent troops to rescue this time, no matter what happens next, Du Hui has no face to compete with Lang Jun for promotion opportunities.”

"That's it!" The old thief didn't expect that there would be so many twists and turns in the officialdom. "In this way, the gentleman's prestige will be greatly increased, and he will have one less rival for promotion. How wonderful!"

Cao Ying said with a smile: "That's how officialdom is, taking advantage of the situation is the most important thing."

Yang Xuan stopped.

"I thought about it for a long time, and all the reasons finally turned out to be just one sentence."

Cao Ying and the old thief stopped.

Zhang Siniang came over with a horizontal knife.

Yang Xuan took the horizontal sword, turned around and said:

"I just couldn't sit back and watch."

…

Chenzhou.

The rapid sound of horse hooves did not slow down until outside the state gate.

A clerk, surrounded by several sergeants, shouted: "Urgent report!"

"Only one person is allowed in." The sergeant guarding the door pointed to the side warily, indicating to several sergeants to go there.

The clerk hurriedly entered the state house.

Liu Qing, Lu Qiang and others were discussing matters.

"Your Majesty, there is an urgent report from Zhangyu County."

Liu Qing nodded, and the clerk was brought in.

"Your Majesty!"

The junior official said in panic: "More than ten thousand cavalry from the Jibo tribe are attacking our county seat of Zhangyu County."

Lu Qiang was startled, "Waxie's tribe attacked Taiping, and Jibo's tribe attacked Zhang Yu. How could He Lianchun be so bold?"

He looked at Liu Qing and said, "Your Majesty, we must send troops immediately. However, we must send more scouts and detectives to prevent Lin'an from being taken advantage of."

"It turned out to be the Jibo Department!" Liu Qing immediately responded, "More than 10,000 people are attacking Zhangyu County, and there are only 2,000 people in the city. I am afraid that it will be too late. But we must send troops."

Do your best to obey fate!

Han Li stood up and said, "I'm going to dispatch you now."

Liu Qing nodded, "Go quickly."

After Han Li left, Lu Qiang said: "Your Majesty, Du Hui has many tricks up his sleeve. If he asks people to go to the left and right to ask for help. On the left is Xuanzhou, which is a long way away, but it is faster than sending troops to Lin'an. However, if Xuanzhou wants to send troops, it must be

Thank you for your permission, sir."

"What do you want to say?" Liu Qing held the water glass, veins popping out on the back of his hands, "Speak louder."

"Taiping." Lu Qiang lowered his voice, "More than 10,000 cavalry are attacking Zhang Yu County. I'm afraid Du Hui won't be able to hold out for a few days. Your Majesty, even if we send reinforcements here, the reinforcements haven't arrived yet. Zhang Yu County

I'm afraid it's gone. I can only call for help nearby."

"Taiping is very close to Zhang Yu. You can get there in just over a day with a quick horse, but..." Liu Qing suddenly cursed: "Du Hui, that old dog, I don't know who got it, starting from the time Yang Xuan arrived in Chenzhou,

He kept teasing him and stumbling upon him.

As the dog said, I didn’t get the benefits, but now I’m being slapped with a sap. Are you stupid? Are you stupid?”

Amidst the roaring, everyone in the officialdom of the state looked solemn.

If Zhang Yu County is captured, the situation in Chenzhou and the three major departments will change drastically.

The three major armies can even march straight in and harass Lin'an. By that time, Chenzhou will be full of wars, and the entire northern Xinjiang may be involved.

Everyone knows that Du Hui set a trap for Yang Xuan. At this moment, Zhang Yu County is besieged by more than 10,000 enemy troops, and Yang Xuan only has more than 2,000 people under his command. Going to the rescue will probably be like beating a dog with meat buns, and there will be no return.

.

So Yang Xuan found an excuse not to go, and no one could say anything.

After Lu Qiang waited for Liu Qing's anger to dissipate, he said: "Yang Xuan doesn't think he is at fault for not rescuing me, but someone has to do something about it. Please order me to lead the army."

"What do you want to do?" Liu Qing asked.

There was a trace of hatred in Lu Qiang's eyes, "If the Jibo tribe destroyed the county seat of Zhangyu County, how could I, Chenzhou, ignore it? If I can't come back with revenge, why would I be a human being?"

Liu Qing looked at him, "You have a strong desire for revenge, but you suppressed it a little after becoming my deputy. It burst out today, and I am very pleased. But this matter will wait."

Lu Qiang took a deep breath and said, "The lower official thinks that we can call in a large army from the northern border to wipe out the Jibo tribe in one fell swoop. All the men will be slaves and all the women will be maidservants!"

The murderous intent is as thick as morning mist.

Liu Qing covered his face and rubbed it a few times, "These are distant waters. Far waters cannot quench the thirst of nearers. Who can save Zhang Yu?"

Reinforcements were dispatched, and Liu Qing personally sent them outside the city and gave instructions to Zhang Lichun, who was leading the team.

"Be careful of being raided by the Jibo Department. In addition, if Zhang Yu County is still there, rescue it at all costs. Remember, Chenzhou cannot bear the cost of Zhang Yu County being breached. Once the news comes, the morale of Chenzhou's military and civilians will be greatly reduced.

Big fall. The seemingly greedy uncle will change his face and pounce fiercely."

He Lianchun seems greedy, but once the situation changes, he will not hesitate at all.

But why the Waxie tribe retreated last time is still an unsolvable mystery in Liu Qing's heart.

Many times, when the interests are large enough, some people will regard their home and country as their own steps, and step on these steps to fight for their own interests.

Zhang Lichun nodded, "Reassuring you, I will send out scouts extensively during this trip to prevent the enemy from making a surprise attack. If Zhang Yu County is still there, I will not attack the enemy in a hurry."

"Okay!" Liu Qing was relieved.

"Your Majesty, I have gone down to the official position." Zhang Lichun handed over his hand.

Reinforcements set off.

Liu Qing and Lu Qiang stood outside the city, their eyes desolate.

"Northern Xinjiang is trembling under the iron cavalry of the enemy, but Chang'an is enjoying peace and prosperity. I remember that I went to Chang'an a few years ago and saw the people who had lost their land and were displaced. It was terrible. But when I arrived in Chang'an, I saw arrogance and extravagance."

"Your Majesty, be careful what you say." Lu Qiang shook his head.

"What are you saying?" Liu Qing scolded: "It is said that your Majesty built some kind of pear orchard, where he sings and dances all day long. All the beauty in the sixth palace is ruined, so he dotes on a daughter-in-law who is a special girl. How shameless!"

Lu Qiang's cheek twitched, "It's shameless."

Liu Qing sighed, "I'm more worried about what will happen to the Tang Dynasty in the future if the king is stupid?"

"Your Majesty, your Majesty is not ignorant." Lu Qiang sneered, "Don't forget about Zhang Chumao."

"That method is indeed sharp." Thinking of Zhang Chumao's plan for the Northern Xinjiang Jiedushi, Liu Qing couldn't help but smile bitterly, "If Your Majesty uses such sharp methods to improve people's livelihood, why worry about the Tang Dynasty not being strong?"

Lu Qiang said: "At this moment, I am thinking about Zhangyu County."

"If it can be defended..." Liu Qing just thought about it for a moment and felt that it was unlikely. "If it can be defended, Du Hui will be both civil and military."

It is natural for such a person to take over the important position in Chenzhou in the future.

"I hope so."

"There are a lot of horses coming from far away. Please be careful, sir." A general shouted from the top of the city.

"Envoy, please come into the city." The sergeants rushed out, blocking Liu Qing and others behind them.

As soon as Liu Qing entered the city, he heard a shout, "This is me, Sergeant of the Tang Dynasty."

Lu Qiang's expression changed drastically, "Could it be that he was attacked elsewhere?"

Liu Qing said calmly: "If this is the case, this is the beginning of the war. We can only do our best."

Several horses came galloping.

"Urgent report from Taiping County."

Liu Qing walked out, took a deep breath, and the wrinkles on his face became much deeper, "I, Liu Qing, tell me!"

The sergeant loudly said: "The Ming Mansion has received news from Zhang Yu County asking for help. It has already led two thousand troops to attack. I have asked the villain to come and report to the envoy."
